The Editorial Of the Future.

The days of editorial essay in a
daily paper have passed, and what
is now wanted are short, snappy ex.
pressions Of opinion, sharp and
directly to the point, without prolix-
ity. 1t is great thing for Young
writer to learn to stop when he gets
through, lesson which some older
writer's who lave been fairly success,
fnl have never learned. Long edito-
rials are more frequently a sign of
laziness than of ability. OF course
there are some subjects which re.
quirc exhaustive treatment, but
under ordinary circumstances long
editorials are written because the
editor has neither the time nor the
brain to write short ones. The short
editorial, the concise. clearly written
article, will GO to make up the model
paper of the future. Pnnctnred by a
paragraph is more than an alliterate
conceit. The paragraph is the most
formidable weapon in the edtor's
arsenal, and the long editorial is the
least effective. Old fogies may speak
with admiration of the "thoughtfnl"
writer who turns the long newspaper
columns, but the man who will WELD
real Influence is he who can put his
thought" in few pi,hy sentences.
Verbiage has had its day, and in the
best papers brains are slowly taking
its place.-Thc Journalist.

OUR NAVY.

We are n wonderful people, q
formidable nation, great power
From insignifcance we have risen to
prominence. Our rise has been rapid
and prodigious. But II few days
ago, and we were an unpretentious
community of planters and shop
keepers: to-day we are military
and naval power. Corporals, lieu
tenants, captains, majors, colonels,
and generals, with gold lace and
brass buttons, swords which most Of
them know not how to carry, much
less to use, and epanlettes like sun
flowers. we have in formidable num-
bers, and few privates thrown in,
to complete the army. The navy is
afoat in the harbor, and will shortly
make demonstration in the great
Pacific, to the South, to strike terror
into the hearts of the natives, and
teach the pigmy national ships of
France, Germany, and Great Britain,
in those waters, Il necessary lesson.
The proud day of Hawaii's navy
putting to sea, with the grandeur
and magnificence of the historical
Spanish Armada, draws near. In
the matter of gorgeous uniforms, if
not in the number of ships, Hawaii
far outshines the Spaniards. Have
we not recently seen our gallant
officers, in their elegant ophir-colored
trappings, exhibited under the glare
of electric light? And did not their
iustre awe our hearts with a rever-
ence that previous acquaintance had
never once inspired! Now we await
deeds of valor that will make the
Hawaiian navy respected and feared
in all the ports of christendom, and
heathendom, too. Not long shall
we have to wait: the fun is about
to begin.
Whatever may be said of the
higher grade of officers, the vast
experience, in navel matters, of
most of those of lower rank, Is
guarantee of great exploits to come.
All of them have seen the harbor
before, and some of them have navi-
gated even so far as the lighthouse.
Their knowledge of their respective
duties is unbounded, having been
picked up from the cutters, dirt
cheap. Their capabilities for the
service have been acquired by long
and faithful practice at bumming,
beer, and the taro-patch fiddle.
Which is the breech and which the
muzzle of cannon may be a--long

1t would be a nice thing for Palatka
if, as at St. Louis, Cincinnati. Louisville
and Keokuk there could be one fine
bridge across the St. Johns River starting
at Harris grove point and crossing to or
near the east end of Adams or North
Laurel street. Let it be a common cross
ing for railroads, vehicles and foot pas
sengers. 1t would not be any material
obstruction to navigation, as large
steamers could land at the city's Water
street front and the up river steamers
could land above, or pass through the
draw Such bridge answers admirably
at Keokuk, Iowa, and for fifteen years
there has been no collisions. Wagons,
etc, and foot passengers pass on the
same level. give this as a nut for the
Board of Trade to crack and get the
kernel. Nox.

train may be delayed for hours awaiting
a train that has been wrecked, or kept
back from many causes Then the
duties of the train dispatcher are of i'm
portance. Knowing every switch, or
side track on the road, he will telegraph
to the delayed train directing it not to go
beyond a certain place, and he directs
the opposing train to proceed to that
place and there pass the other train
He may have several trains in his
charge at the same time, and his respon-
sibility consists in giving correct order
to each tram to avoid delays. or else
collision would ensue, much property be
destroyed, and probably lives be lost
Train dispatchers must be men of in

ators and of temperate habits.

The thermometer at West End yester-
day registered at a. M. eighty-two de-
grees; at 1 p. m, ninety-four degrees
and at 9 p. m, eighty-nine- In the re-
port as published yesterday morning the
D. M figures should have read NINETY
degrees" instead of eighty as printed.
The Board of Health, at its meeting
yesterday, decided to remove the quar-
antine on this county on all the roads
Leading into Palatka except the ST. Johns
and Halifax road. The counties south of
us have such effective guarantees that
the Board think we are fully protected,
and that there is no further necessity in
quarantining any place except the Hall
fax Coast.
Col. Tom Harris, of the Ocala Free
Press, was in town yesterday, and last
night gave us a short but pleasant call.
He came to town armed with a petition,
signed by more than three hundred citi
zens of his section, asking the Florida
Southern road to put on a train below
Ocala that would give the people an OPP
portunity to trade in that town. We
learn that the officials of the road, in
consequence, will place another train
on to run from Leesburg every morning
to Gainesville and return in the evening.
Everybody who knows the gentleman
spoken of in the following, will agree
with the Orlando Reporter, from which
paper it is taken: ''Col. Bob Davis, OF

Davis has the ability, the energy, the

visit his friend, Levi Hill, who kept a
pet bear chained to a post IN his yard.
After inspecting Bruin, MIR. Finn and his
dog proceeded to have some fun with
the bear. Finn pointed his gun and the
dog kept up barking until the bears tenn
per '.riz-" The bear made pass at his
tormentors and broke his chain. Mr.
Finn bounded over the fence and the
dog followed. Soon the bear made his
appearance and then there was a race
a quarter-mile dash-through the mid
die of the street. First Gas Superinten-
dent Finn, then his dog and last the bear.
Mr.. Finn concluded to win and made
some lofty springs. while the dog kept
the bear from getting the inside pole for
the home stretch. The Muncy people
nloyed the race and 50 did Mr.. Finn
for he won by few laps and land safely
in the Parker Honse minus his hat.
